Our leaders have nothing better to do. I admit, Martin’s version is not the best. However, this is not a reason to fine or send him to jail. Do we not have anything better to do? Charice Pempengco sang the Star Spangled Banner and she was given the option to modify it according to her style. People loved it. Every nation, every country must have sang their national anthem in different ways. So far, no one was fined or sent to jail because of this. If the Philippines chose to penalize Martin, then we will be the first to do so. I CAN SEE IT NOW. WE WILL BE THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE WHOLE WORLD. THANKS TO OUR LEADERS AND CORRUPT POLITICIANS. If we want to clean our act, start with them first. Nakakatawa kayo.

Lupang Hinirang is a national anthem. according to law, there are specifics that should be followed as to its beat, phrasing, time. nothing more nothing less. it should not be corrupted at any time. it seems that there are morons who are not aware of this and that explains why.
